Samsung's also been mum on the price, which I think we can all expect to be somewhat painful. And as this is a gaming-focused monitor Samsung isn't touting the full set of color quality specs, but if it's anything like the 49" Odyssey G9 I'd expect excellent support for the DCI, sRGB, and Adobe RGB color gamuts. No word on what other inputs it may offer, but I expect it'll have a full array including Thunderbolt 4. The Odyssey Neo G9 also is the first monitor with DisplayPort 2.1, with will be necessary to drive all 16.5 million pixels at the maximum 240hz refresh rate. ![]() Gimme gimme gimme- Derek Kessler January 31, 2019 Full DCI-P3, Adobe RGB, Rec.709, Rec.2020 gamut support Want: Pro-grade high-res ultra-wide display Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 57" ultrawide display I'm willing to pay for quality, but what I wanted just didn't exist. I could accept some loss of resolution (I don't expect an ultrawide 10K any time soon), but I need good color accuracy and a good number of pixels to feel happy. I kept saying "not yet" because those tempting ultrawides didn't check my boxes. I've grown used to it, but still watched the rise of all these new 32:9 ultrawide monitors with envy. My biggest complaint with these otherwise awesome monitors is the bezels: with them side-by-side I have a 1-ΒΌ" black plastic gap right in the middle of my field of view. They've served me well for years, but I've been itching for the past few years for an upgrade that hasn't existed. They were expensive as heck, but they checked the boxes I wanted: high resolution and the most accurate color fidelity. Several years ago I made a massive upgrade to the then-new LG 5K UltraFine monitors - two of them. The color accuracy and mediocre backlight proved problematic with my graphic design projects for school and work, but I persisted because I'm a stubborn guy. ![]() This was years ago, so while it was indeed wide as promised, it wasn't good quality. For the first several years of my computing journey I just used whatever screen my laptop had, and then I added in my first external monitor: a 29" 21:9 ultrawide LCD panel from AOC. ![]() Like my pickiness with getting the exact right speakers, I'm kinda hard-headed when it comes to monitors too.
